Dang... you people are old af...

Probably my most played actual vinyl records would be

Danniebelle - He is King
Paul Simon - Still Crazy
CSNY - De ja vu (?)

Pat Travers: Go for what you know
UFO: Strangers in the Night
Rush: All the worlds a Stage
Tesla: Mechanical Resonance
Frank Zappa: Sheik Yerbouti

Rush Moving Pictures
Metallica Master of Puppets
Duran Duran Rio
Nightwish - all releases
Lindsey Stirling - again all releases
Lacuna Coil early releases

Who's Next and Highway 61 revisted have both been worn out once in vinyl and are also on CDs.

Ran across this old Jespear thread and it got me thinking about the years I worked in the record retail industry. Worked a total of 11 years, mostly part-time but did put in a couple or 3 years at full or near full-time status. Because of the many hours listening to music but more importantly, getting to choose what I wanted to hear, think these albums are probably right up there in my Top 5:

Jackson Browne - Running on Empty
The Cars - debut album
Elvis Costello - My Aim is True
Elvis Costello - This Years Model
Joe Jackson - Look Sharp!
Graham Parker - Squeezing Out Sparks
Bruce Springsteen - Darkness on the Edge of Town
Steely Dan - Aja

I played some of these albums every day or night that I worked. Five days a week.

And I loved it!

I agree to both. I didn't get into Bob Dylan or appreciated him until the past half dozen years. Ran into a documentary about him on Netflix or PBS. If I remember correctly it was called No Direction Home. After I saw that I thought to myself, I should give Dylan a further listening to. Then I found it on the Torrents to download into my media library.



A bunch of the songs he wrote where performed by some other big names in the industry.

"All Along the Watchtower." Jimi Hendrix has a great rendition of this song (actually I think this is the best version).
"Like a Rolling Stone." Jimi Hendrix has a great rendition of this song.
"Mr. Tambourine Man" preformed by The Byrds.
"Blowin' in the Wind." A protest song popularized by various artists, including Peter, Paul and Mary and Stevie Wonder.
"Knockin' on Heaven's Door" a song made popular by Guns N' Roses. It was originally written and recorded by Dylan.

Try listening to this Along the Watchtower live on Farm Aid: by Neil Young and Crazy Horse with Willie Nelson
